Starting cf parts again

Well, After almost two years, I've finally gotten ahold of a fair amount of carbon fiber. If I have a good interest in any particular part, I can do it for you guys. So, what's of interest right now?

I just gave up on the Rev6 style kits. The problem comes in the manufacturing. Anything I have come up with design style of the rev6 have been more expensive to produce. The unfortunate part is I just don't have the connections for metal fab on a larger scale.

Any body panels, 94+ wing and trunk lid, turbo-style engine lid. Those would be the easiest.

I'd like to see a CF dash, but that's me just dreamin. Also flat underbody panels and rear diffuser. Again, that's dreamin, lol.

Affordable 94+ wing and trunk lid would be PERFECT.

I think a lot of people would love to see some CF side mouldings. Not really a weight saver, but would look really good.

CF lips! I love the way they look on Civics. It looks really nice with a CF hood.

Headlight covers?? To match a CF hood. I've seen them once and thought it was a great idea.

you could also do small engine bay/frunk peices, like the cover for the fuse boxes, cc cable junction, etc
